The pictures contained in the archive present photographics images taken from various news sources as well a private photographers as evidence of the violent crackdown on the recent so-called "candlelight protests" in Seoul. The images pertain to the protests on 1st of June in Seoul and have largely been censored from Korean newsportals, forums and other related websites trying to cover the incident.

1.These photos has been uploaded in the online board of Korean Internet Portal,for instance, the Agora of Daum.net, but it has also been erased forcefully by someone...

2.These photos are evidence of violence by the present Lee Myung-bak government on the citizen who havae just 'voice' expressing their protests against the irresponsible entire relaxation of US beef imports and his atempts to privatise the public media and water and medicine, even some important banks, etc.

3.The likely audience of these photos and our 'voices' are the human beings throughtout the world and the paper-tiger UN Secretary General Ban ki-mun who is Korean and has shut his ears and eyes to the worst human rights situation in Korea.

4.For verification you can call the www.hani.co.kr or www.ohmynews.com or www.voiceofpeople.org, etc.

5.The Korean government just shut its eyes and ears towards the 'voices' of peple and just justifies thier stance against people, and more and more violence and suppression and concealment are being done by government.

6.There has been the peaceful candlelight vigils and protest since last month more than 20 times but there has been no clear answer from president Lee Myung-bak and no measures taken to reflect the voices of people. Housewives, fathers, mothers, oldpeople, student from primary to highschool and college students and the workers, whitecollar worker, farmers, journalists... every citizen participated in the protests and vigils.
